mc Posted June 4, 2003 Share Posted June 4, 2003 I have a 88 200SXSE,REAR WHEEL DRIVE AND V6. i need info on how to mount a 300zx turbo on the front of the engine. The car wasnt equipped with a/c and i'm using a mAXIMA DUAL ELECTRIC fan in stead of the stock set up. There is alot of room up front now. Any info is much appreciated!!!!Thanks, Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lockjaw Posted June 4, 2003 Share Posted June 4, 2003 Will the stock 300ZX turbo manifolds not work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc Posted June 4, 2003 Author Share Posted June 4, 2003 yeah its very tight.no room for crossover and the turbo hits the steering.only way would be to wrap it around the front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lockjaw Posted June 5, 2003 Share Posted June 5, 2003 Could you flip the manifolds and move the turbo to the front passenger side? Just tossing out an idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1FASTKINGCAB Posted June 5, 2003 Share Posted June 5, 2003 I use a 87 ZX-T driver side manifold mounted upside down to clear my steering box and the stock pickup driver side manifold on the pass side with the X-over pipe routed down around the fron to the engine/ x-member, the down pipe then runs straight down in front the front of the engine. the DP could have been routed around the steering box and frame rail if I hadn't gone 3" but 3" would have probably hit the fender/ tire. I sent you a reply to the email you sent me today. JGS can make you a pair of manifolds if you wanted to mount the turbo on the X-over pipe. LMK if you have any more questions. P.S. If you or anyone has a scaner I can snail-mail pics of my truck and how the manifolds where fliped. the VG30 manifolds will bolt on any way. driver to the pass side, upside down, however.
